71: Into the Fire (Korean title: 포화 속으로) is a 2010 South Korean war film, directed by John H. Lee. Set during the darkest days of the Korean War, it tells the true story of 71 undertrained South Korean student soldiers who defended the P'ohang-dong school against the 766th Vanguard Regiment of the North Korean Army over 11 hours on August 11th, 1950.
The following weapons were seen in the film 71: Into the Fire:
Sidearms
Colt M1911A1
The Colt M1911A1 pistol makes an appearance in the hands of Captain Kang Suk-dae (Seung-woo Kim) during the opening battle. Other US and South Korean officers carry it holstered.
Luger P08
One of the 766th Vanguard Regiment officers carries a Luger P08, which is odd because most captured German weapons were sent to the Kremlin after World War II.
Nambu Type 14
The Nambu Type 14 pistol can be seen in the hands of several North Korean officers, most notably their commander, Major Park Mu-rang (Seung-won Cha).
Submachine Guns
PPSh-41
Some North Korean soldiers and student soldiers are seen wielding the PPSh-41 submachine guns. Ku Kap-jo (Sang-woo Kwone) fires a captured one during the school battle. Park Mu-rang (Seung-won Cha) also uses the PPSh-41 during the final battle, notably to kill a Captain who bosses him around.
Rifles
M1 Garand
Most of the South Korean soldiers, US soldiers and student soldiers use M1 Garand rifles, most notably Student Soldier Captain Oh Jang-beom (Seung Hyun Choi) and Ku Kap-jo (Sang-woo Kwone). This was the main service weapon of the US and South Korea during the war.
M1 Carbine
Some of the South Korean soldiers and US soldiers wield the M1 Carbine with both 15 and 30 round magazines. Kang Suk-dae (Seung-woo Kim) also uses one throughout the film.
Mosin Nagant M1891
Most of the North Korean soldiers use the Mosin Nagant M1891. Near the end of the film, Oh Jang-beom (Seung Hyun Choi) and Ku Kap-jo (Sang-woo Kwone) also use captured rifles against North Korean soldiers.
Mosin Nagant variant
SKS
The SKS is used by some KPA soldiers.
Machine Guns
Browning M1917
South Korean soldiers fire a Browning M1917 during the opening battle.
Browning M1919A4
The Browning M1919A4 is used by South Korean soldiers during the opening battle. An M1919A4 fitted with a custom bipod can be seen on a guard post at the P'ohang-dong school.
Degtyaryov DP-28
The Degtyaryov DP-28 is used by North Korean soldiers. Ku Kap-jo (Sang-woo Kwone) and Oh Jang-beom (Seung Hyun Choi) also use this gun to kill North Korean soldiers on the rooftop.
Maxim M1910/30
Ku Kap-jo (Sang-woo Kwone) uses a Maxim M1910/30 mounted on top of a North Korean truck. It is later dismounted and used on the rooftop by Kap-jo and Jang-beom (Seung Hyun Choi).
Others
M20B1 "Super Bazooka"
An M20B1 "Super Bazooka" is used by Kang Suk-dae (Seung-woo Kim) to destroy a North Korean tank.
M18 Recoilless Rifle
A North Korean soldier uses an M18 Recoilless Rifle to destroy a South Korean machine gun nest in the opening battle. This could be the Type 36, the ChiCom designation for the M18.
M2 Mortar
The M2 Mortar is discovered in an abandoned barn by the student soldiers, and used in the P'ohang-dong school battle. North Korean soldiers fire it during the opening battle.
Mk 2 Hand Grenade
The student soldiers also use the Mk 2 Hand Grenades against North Korean soldiers along with their M1 Garand rifles, rigged up to a length of rope as a booby trap.
Type 67 Stick Grenade
KPA soldiers carry the Type 67 Stick Grenades. It is never seen used in the film.
